SALEM –Virginia Department of Transportation crews and contractors are monitoring and addressing road conditions this evening as dropping temperatures create the potential for re-freezing on roadways.

Drivers are encouraged to allow for extra travel time on their morning commute tomorrow and to watch for isolated slick spots on bridges and ramps on Interstates (I-77, I-81 and I-581) and primary roads (those numbered 1-599).

Drivers should also watch for slick spots on secondary roads (those numbered 600 and above), neighborhood streets and subdivisions, especially in areas that are mostly in the shade during the day.

Travelers are reminded that they can get real-time information on road conditions and traffic incidents on Virginia roads by using VDOT’s 511 free mobile app or the www.511Virginia.org website and phone system.

The Salem District includes the counties of Bedford, Botetourt, Carroll, Craig, Floyd, Franklin, Giles, Henry, Montgomery, Patrick, Pulaski, and Roanoke.
